1.2 By sex and age

Only Indicator 6, Children benefiting from resilience-enhancing programming, sees a higher proportion of females reached over men.

1.3 By county

54.54% of all beneficiaries reached originate from Turkana, though it only has 14.05% of the targeted population.

IPC data extracted from here.

1.4 Gaps

As the drought response draws to a close, it is necessary to review the allocation of resources i.e. have they been fair and proportional to the needs identified. As mentioned, county-level targets were set in line with the IPC and are considered valid.

Substantial deviation from targets has been observed, including areas such as Turkana where targets have been greatly exceeded:

4. Schools and education level

4.1 Schools

The number of schools reached by school feeding programmes and WASH in schools interventions to-date are:

However, reporting the overall number of schools reached by all EiE interventions is much more challenging.

Whilst all partners working on indicators 2 and 4 submitted the number of schools they were working in, the same is not true for the other indicators. Only indicators 2 and 4 require the reporting of the number of schools.

Additionally, it is not possible to know which of these schools are repeats, since only the number of schools reached per sub-county are reported, not the individual facilites themselves.
